Well this is interesting. I plugged my phone into my computer to pull some photos off of it and I just happen to start browsing it via Windows Explorer since the device shows up there. Imagine my surprise when I saw things that were in my Hidden folder show up clear as day. It seems that lock is only at an application level and just browsing the file system it’s there to see.
Does anyone else experience something similar? Is there a note I missed that it’s still be available via other means?
Right. I used to have a program on my computer that completely removed files from the index. There was no reference to their location or existence except for within that program. Even safe mode wouldn’t reveal them. That’s the right way to go about it.
